[Q] Huawei Honor H60-L12 ROM - Software Install Failed!

Hi all,
I bought a H60-L12, but the manufacturer had installed the H60-L02 rom (version H60-L02V100R001CHNC00B611).
How can I install the H60-L12 version?
I've already tried to install these 5 ROMS:
H60-L12_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B307
H60-L12_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B611
H60-L12-4-4-V100R001CHNC00B118-unicom-32g
H60-L12-4-4-V100R001CHNC00B119-High-unicom
H60-L12-V100R001CHNC00B121
But I always get the error "Software Install Failed!" with the volume + & - & power method.
Also tried with the *#*#2846579#*#* and didn't worked as well.
Tried to install different stock versions and nothing.
What should I do more?
Regards,
Luis

Check INDEX
"For L12 Users ONLY" Sections you might need to restore correct version stock local.prop and build.prop

I have the same problem but I am on version L04 at the moment and can not got back to L12. My phone is not rooted nor unlocked. I asked the support of Huawei via mail but till now no reaction from their side...

Hi, yes I did. I wrote the way here (in german)

Scroll down to: 3 Button Restore not working (If you change between variant example L02>L12) Or Partition been changes and cannot restore back Stock version. Use this steps below : -

From huawei club forum, which posted by Chinese, they provided a "middle package" for H60-L02/L12, L01/L03/L11/L21:
Link for refer: http://club.huawei.com/thread-4744481-1-1.html
中转包地址如下：
荣耀6移动版（H60-L01/L03/L11/L21）
荣耀6联通版（H60-L02/L12）
We have to download it, then do upgrade it first before upgrade ROM version.
P/S: If you cannot extract it, may need rename it from chinese name to latin letter.
If need assist in Chinese word, let me know.
Hope this help.

Hi all, I'm new of the forum, and this seems to be exactly the same issue I'm having.
I had to buy a replacement for my H60-L12 and I decided to buy a new one, so I went to the same store and I ordered the same phone.
When it arrived, the label indicate H60-L12, bon on the box and on the back of the phone. But when I switched on, the model name and the serial number indicated the H60-L02.
What is really strange is that, according to what I have been seeing on technical specification on internet, the L02 should have 16GB di memory, while this one has 32GB.
Do you have any idea if it is possible to verify from the IMEI what is the real model of the phone and if it is possible that a L02 firmware version was installed on a L12? I have the B316, I have tried to dowload the B316 for the L12 and put it on the dload folder, then local update, but it fails (probabily because it is the same version?).
I have download the H60-L02/L12 file indicated in the previous post, but it is very small. Is it ok?
After I have installed it using the local update procedure, what should I do?
Thanks!

I will share my experience with this issue.
As it turned out, my L12 was flashed with the wrong firmware and seens as a L02.
No way to restore the correct version with any more or less standard procedure (not even copying the built and prop files from the L12, the upgrad was always failing).
So, for future reference, what I did was:
- use the unbrick function to load a EMUI2.3 version of the firmware (at this point the phone was almost unusable because everything was crashing)
- copied the L12 B316 on the SD in dload directory
- installed using the three button procedure
The upgrade was correctly executed and now everything is working fine.
In case someone was wondering why I didn't use the unbrick function to load the L12 B316, the answer is: I did it, but it was not working. As I said, it seems that the unbrick function leaves a lot of the previous installation behind, and despite the load of the B313 (yes, I tried the 313 to be able to update then to 316 with the complete update package and have a clean installation), the update package was downloaded but not installed, always giving error. Same with the three button procedure.
So, the only way I found has been to revert to 2.3 and then apply the update.
Now I would like to know who flashed the L02 on my L12 and made me loose four days

how to change the name of a file in /vendor back?

i did a dumb thing: i changed the name of two files in /vendor and now when i boot my phone it boots into huawei eRecovery.
when i am in eRecovery i have three options:
download latest version and recovery (witch doesn't work), reboot and shutdown
when i opened twrp i tried changing the file names back but that failed with 1 error
i also tried to do a factory reset with twrp when it was done (with out errors) i tried to boot my phone up but it whent in eRecovery again.
please leave a comment if you know a simillar thread or fix
this is my first thread so if this is the wrong place for this thread i'm sorry

Hi shashank, thanks for responding so quickly.
But I don't know my build and model number, because I can't get into my phone. Is there a way to see it without booting in android?

Based on the info, I assume this is BLN-L21C432 version on Nougat.
Please download and flash this file-
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G753/g104/v82485/f1/full/update.zip
via dload method given here- https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240
Start from 5th point. This shoul fix your problem if not, download this as well
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...-L21_hw_eu/update_data_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip
and flash via same method.
If this does not fix, I will give you another file for C185 region (because 2 have 2 models for BLN-L21) but yours should be C432 based on EU region.

I used the first file and it kinda worked
When I boot my phone it sais your device has failed verification and may not work properly in red and I can't install a system update
Should I flash the other file?
I checked my model and build number and they are:
Model: BLN-L21
Build: BLN-L21C432B367

Forced update via erecovery!

Guys! Hello again... I'm still blocked with android 8.1 on elm29 sp5c900. I understand that c900 is global, Huawei still tells me that an update will come soon, but nothing. Erecovery doesn't find nothing on server and hisuite doesn't help me at all. Now the question... Is there a problem if I download an update file from firmware finder and install it with forced update (power plus volume buttons)? Can I brick the device, since I don't have a backup file or original software

Firmware downloaded through Firmware finder won't install via forced update, you can use service ROM (download though androidhost dot ru) and place it on usb OTG and force it. Or you can use patched Hisuite method to update https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146/page132
Yes it can brick, anything can happen but very unlikely, just backup your device through Hisuite before trying that if you want to keep your personal data(won't back up firmware, only apps, contacts etc.)

C900 hw/normal does not get any update.
Just force some updated base via dload package or via forced hisuite with dns spoofed.

Thanks for your answers! So... The steps will be... 1. Download "update full base. app"
2. Place it on root folder in dload folder
3. Update it via forced update (power button plus both volume buttons)
I've found on firmware finder update.app file. This works via dload method?

For dload, you ll have to use an USBOTG, exfat formatted.
On 8.1, Use a 9.0 dload's update.app .
Once on 9.0, use a 9.1 dload's update_sd.zip
Alternative is to use forced hisuite.-If so uodzte first to 9.0 then 9.1.

Thanks a ton. I will try with dload. Is more simple

Forced hisuite doesn't work! Gives me only update to android 8.0. Firmware finder on pc doesn't give me my version sp5c900, so I can't download any firmware. Now I don't trust FF on phone neither. What if this gives wrong firmware, since my emui version is not suported. ****

Meaning there is no update on hicloud server available for C900.

True. Damn huawei ****ty version.
Thx a lot #oslo for advices

I've spoked (finally) with someone from Huawei on chat, and after verifying my serial number she told me that my phone is a demo version. F%$&. So, no Android 9 for me. Still, my phone works flawlessly. Since I'm stuck on 8.1 I want to root it and play a little more. Can you give me an idea how to root it? Thanks

First, is this device is with an unlocked bootloader ? (and/or do you have the unlock code ?)
To check bootloader/phone status, boot to fastboot/bootloader mode :
Plug device to PC with Hisuite, reboot P20 and Hold volumeDown on P20 until it boot on white screen ;
What is your Phone status ?

Sorry for late response. Bootloader is locked.
"phone locked.
FRP UNLOCKED"
And I don't have bootloader code.

So you won't mind that dload packages are locking back bootloader as it is already locked...

Downgraded base firmware now reboots every 20 seconds

I recently purchased a P40 Pro (ELS-N04 or ELS-lgrp4 base) which had .148 firmware on it. I used the firmware finder to find an approved firmware for my device: ELS-LGRP6-OVS 10.1.0.136 and performed the downgrade using the hisuite method. My device now reboots every 20 seconds and has no cellular connectivity. Can anyone point me in the right direction to correct this please?
I think if someone pointed me to the correct firmware, I could probably fix this through fastboot... Maybe?
Thank you.

Fastboot wont work unfortunatley. What you can do is go to androidhost.ru and find your firmware ( can be the same aswell ) Its roughly a 3 - 4 gb download.
1. Download the firmware of your choice from the link below:
https://androidhost.ru/
2. Put the ''dload'' folder found in the zip at the root of a usb stick
3. Attach the usb stick to you phone. I take it anyone knows how to do it. Shutdown your phone. Then press and hold volume up and power button until you get to the recovery menu
4. Select Update mode, then select Memory card/OTG update mode
5. The phone will verify and install the firmware
Make sure that your Emui 10.0.1.***(C********) Matches otherwise the update will fail.

Is there an easy way to identify the "correct" firmware? It looks like https://androidhost.ru/ only has one file available which isn't the same model version as mine.

i bet u didnt know what type firmware on your phone and the type of firmware that u download before u update *according to pic 3
first of all, huawei have many version of EMUI 11 for Mate 30 pro for many region....
so u must check "Base software version" in your phone and matching it with the firmware database... then download and flash it to your phone via SDcard/HISUITE
example.. my phone has base software version called "LIO-LGRP2-OVS 11.0.0.151"
if i want to downgrade/manually upgrade, i must search firmware with code "LIO-LGRP2-OVS"
how to access/search base software version ?
dial *#*#2846579#*#* > veneer information > version info
